I uploaded 2 pics of #4 cylinder to my gallery, I'll try to attach one here. That looks like a cracked piston to me, as Jimmy suggested.
If you all confirm that diagnosis I'll pull the head and see how the bores look. My preference is to avoid pulling the block if possible and put in a used piston / new rings. Or is that false economy? In the back of my mind is the number of miles on the car.
